Website Wednesday - Newton's Laws of Physics

Newton’s Laws of Physics – Today’s subject is as much for me as it is for you. I just scored DD’s Science test and we need to understand this subject matter better. So I’m hoping a little web work will help.

http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/newton.html - This NASA site has an explanation of the laws as well as grade appropriate activities.

http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/Class/newtlaws/u2l1a.html - This in depth site will help mom and child understand the concepts.

http://www.physics4kids.com/files/motion_laws.html - When you think you understand the concepts, read and review this site, and then take the quiz.

Here’s a rather inventive description of the laws:

Even though it is still WAY over his head, I think even my five year old will enjoy the Lego version of Newton's laws! He will understand the basics. I will be sure to show it to him tomorrow!
